5Not to be missed if you are visiting Derry
A great history of Derry from the Civil Rights movement to the signing of the Good Friday Agreement.
5Free Derry
A nice narrative on Bloody Sunday while walking through the area it took place.
5Self Guided Walking Tour well worth it
We were very interested in seeing the murals regarding the troubles - the person at the visitors centre advised that they were within a 5-10 unite walk and that a guide was not really necessary so off we went. There are numerous murals depicting the conflict with the British as well as some sympathetic to human rights and the situation in Palestine. Highly recommend taking the self guided walking tour to see several dozen murals

Paul was our tour guide and he presented the information in such a wonderful and relatable manner. Paul educated me about a topic that I was unfamiliar with and can’t say enough about what a truly amazing tour it was. If you have the opportunity you should take this tour!
4Bloody Sunday walking tour.
Michael Kinsella was a very lovely fella. His was incredibly knowledgeable. He was as non-partisan as can be. He mixed facts, recorded details and personal experience into a very informative talk. However, it was too long with too much information. 2 1/2 hours was taxing. Loved his passion and humour.
5An amazing tour
An amazing tour with Michael, hugely informative, affecting and comprehensive. Completely engaging despite the miserable weather!

About Derry-Londonderry
Derry, also called Londonderry, is a walled city on the River Foyle in Northern Ireland, with intact seventeenth-century ramparts and a layered history.
Derry stands on the River Foyle in the north-west of Northern Ireland, and its seventeenth-century walls, about a mile round, are the most complete city walls in Ireland and can be walked along the top. The Guildhall, a neo-Gothic building with stained-glass windows, stands beside the river, and St Columb's Cathedral dates from the 1630s. The Siege of Derry of 1688 and 1689 is the best-known episode in its history.
